He's in the same year as me- 17-18 y/o in the last year of college (2 years) before university.
Different system here, might have confused you.
In other news, I was phoned up to come into college on Monday- I came in and my ICT teacher told me to go argue about a piece of coursework I had done with the guy who marked it- he put it down as a D grade, which would equal a pass/merit on the old scale. After arguing with him, explaining I had met more of the criteria than he originally marked, I managed to get it up to a B which is a merit/distinction on the old scale- all because I argued over it.
Makes me wonder about my other courseworks, and the marks they haven't given me where they should.
General studies today at 1 o'clock. I still don't understand general studes, whats the point. I don't do the lessons as it clashes with a business lesson I have, so I favour business. Yet they have put me in for the exams because they think I can handle it.
